"What a Platinum dissapointment!"

Feature:
It included nothing but a 300 bucks lousy equalizer...

Quality:
Looks sturdy but cheapo for the price... Unconfortable layout...

Value:
No, no, no!...

Sound:
I payed a lot (like 275.00 or even more) for this. It had to be brought to Mexico City by a friend. First of all... it worked the way it was supposed to... it was not a lemon... it "is" very lame... you just can

Style of Music: good music to my ears, no matter the style you are doing...

Description

The Fishman Pro EQ Platinum is premium preamp/DI, dialed-in for just the acoustic player. Fishman packed the Pro EQ Platinum with a rack's worth of serious acoustic processing, all in a stompbox-sized package. The Pro EQ Platinum has a powerful 4-band EQ (with sweepable mids), a phase switch and notch filter for controlling and eliminating feedback, an XLR DI output and much more. You invested a lot in your acoustic guitar, right? Get every ounce of tone from it with the Pro EQ Platinum.

Features
Four-band Acoustic EQ with sweepable mid-range

Feedback-fighting phase switch and notch filter

XLR DI (with ground/lift and pre/post switches) for pro-sound & recording

Smooth Control: Fishman's acoustic compression smoothes out amplified acoustic sound

Exclusive Voltage Doubler Circuit for more clarity and greater dynamics

Easy access battery compartment

Tuner/Send output

Input Gain and Master Volume Controls

Rugged injection-molded case

3-way power from 9V battery, 48V phantom power or AC adapter

Designed in response to requests from players, this versatile preamp/EQ/DI is at home everywhere from local open mic nights to major festival stages. With its simple yet precise controls, you can quickly dial in the natural acoustic sound you're looking for; loud, clear and feedback free.

The Pro-EQ Platinum's four-band equalizer is modeled after our gig-proven Prefix Plus onboard preamp, with sliders that are assigned to just the right frequencies for acoustic equalization. A semi-parametric midrange control employs a "constant Q" filter for more precise and consistent tone adjustments. Also borrowed from the Prefix design are feedback fighting phase and notch controls.

The Pro-EQ Platinum features our exclusive "Voltage Doubler" technology, which improves both the dynamics and clarity of any pickup. Another innovation utilized in the Platinum is our Smooth acoustic compression circuit. This control removes the harsh percussive edge from your amplified sound when you play hard.

Sound engineers will appreciate the Pro-EQ Platinum's pro-audio features which include a balanced XLR out, an XLR pre/post EQ switch, plus optional 48-Volt phantom power operation. This means no more batteries or wall warts if your mixer has phantom power. Unique to the Pro-EQ Platinum is a hum-killing ground lift switch that (unlike other acoustic preamp/DI's) works even when phantom power is applied to the preamp.
